The knock on effects from the Budget (higher bond interest rates) seemed to have slowed the IT job market again, at least compared to September and October when there was a moderate bounce in the market on the back of the first interest rate cut by the BOE in August.

2 year gilts were 3.5% in August now 4.4%

Have the rates reached a new low? Contracts that used to be £700 pd (outside) now advertised for £300 inside.
